When can I apply?
Each program will be closed as soon as it reaches its maximum capacity. Spring and Fall programs close by the set deadlines due to time constraints dictated by the visa application process. Applicants will be accepted on a rolling basis during the application window, first-come, first-served for these two semesters. It usually takes several weeks before you will hear if you are accepted.
Application Deadlines
- Summer 2021 term: August 17, 2020 to February 15, 2021. (Apply early! Program is filling up and will soon be waitlisted!)
- Fall 2021 term: August 17, 2020 to March 1, 2021.
- Spring 2022 term: April 1, 2021 to October 1, 2021
Applications for all semesters are reviewed on a rolling basis until applications close or the program fills. It usually takes several weeks once we start reviewing applications until you receive an acceptance.
The Summer program always sells out, so be sure to apply early so as not to be wait-listed. If you do get wait-listed, know that you are likely to get in, but you may need to wait until later in the Spring before a spot opens up.
And remember, your application fee is non-refundable once you have been accepted to the program. Make sure you understand our cancellation policy before applying! Please plan in advance for all semesters.
